Keyboard shortcut to close the Find and Replace dialog

In Visual Studio, I type CTRL-F to open the Find and Replace dialog. I can search with F3 or ENTER. This brings me to the next hit, with the focus on the window where the text was found.

However, the Find and Replace dialog is still there. If I press ESCAPE the window loses focus, but it doesn't go away. I end up having to move my mouse to the smal开发者_运维百科l X on the top right like 100 times a day.

Is there a keyboard shortcut to close the Find and Replace dialog?
